When I play golf with
friends or if I am practicing, my golf game is very consistent.
As soon as I need to perform in a serious competition my game seemed
to fall apart, pulling my drives, miss judging simplest of puts
ect ect. Since working with Gary I really understand the 90% mental
10% physical saying, as I have turned my game around. I won
my first Pro tournament last week and feel really exicted about
my future as a Pro Golfer. PGA Golfer

The reason I came to see
you as you know, was because I didn't believe I could use my left
foot. As a striker It has always been drummed into me I must be
able to use both feet. I have spent years getting away with only
using my right foot, since seeing you and lots of practice I can
now confidently say it doesn't matter which foot the ball comes
to I can score with either. Since our meetings I have increased
confidence and self belief and I believe because of that I now have
2 premiership teams and a Championship team interested in signing
me. Watch this space. Thank you so much GH - Pro Footballer

My sports Breakthrough,
is the best thing I've ever done. It's changed my life and I feel
great ! It's not just limited to my sport but has positively affected
all areas of my life.
I had
suffered a series of major emotional traumas in my life, some recent,
some not so recent. I have always considered myself a fairly well
balanced person, well adapted to life and its ups and downs and,
therefore, I felt I'd pretty much got the coping skills to get through
things.
When certain
emotional issues piled up on me once again in 2004, I felt as though
my virtual world was collapsing around me. I lost total confidence
in myself and whilst I put on a good act outwardly, I felt like
I was being eaten away inside.
I was
incredibly reluctant to seek help. I now can't even rationalise
why, but I suppose I was afraid to open up old wounds and even more
afraid of having to talk about them. In short, by seeking help,
I felt I had failed.
But, I
got to the point where I did not want to go into another year with
these gremlins hanging around me and I had come to terms with the
fact that I couldn't deal with them on my own.
:The
day I spent with Gary was quite extra ordinary. Yes it was extremely
traumatic, but then the issues I had to deal with were huge a
debilitating accident; death of loved ones; a broken marriage; horrible
issues at work. Major emotions had to be confronted head-on; grief,
sadness, anger, fear, guilt.
Bit by
bit, Gary encouraged me to work through these using his various
mechanisms of psychology, particularly delving into the subconscious
to discover issues I wasn't consciously even aware of.
The day
has not just been a break through for me, it has been a life changing
turning point.
I am able
to talk about things in an easy style now things that would have
dissolved me to tears before. I am comfortable with myself once
again and not just confident outwardly, but also inwardly. I am
able to see things as the are and can look at them from a different
perspective still with feeling, but without overwhelming emotion.
I cannot
recommend Gary highly enough.

The Inner Edge techniques
that I have learnt from you has really made me understand what negative
thoughts are and how not to let them affect my game. I now always
believe I will make the put and I find myself seeing exactly what
I want to do when standing on the tee. Even more outstanding is
when I do miss hit a shot I am calm and relaxed about it. Euro

'I
would like to thank Phil Wells and his Impact Life team for presenting
an educational fun filled football evening.
The
boys thoroughly enjoyed the positive interactive approach focusing
on their own personal strengths including the 'mystery coach appearance'.
I
would certainly recommend sports managers of any level to consider
using Impact Life as a fundamental guide to improving junior and
senior sportsmen & sportswomen'
